1 Wilkes County Schools Tracee McManus & Nikki Patrick

2   Bloom’s Taxonomy  Investigate the Revised Taxonomy  New terms  New emphasis  Explore each of the six levels  Use the taxonomy to plan a unit and develop an assessment for the learning targets Overview

3   Taxonomy of Cognitive Objectives  1950s- developed by Benjamin Bloom  Means of expressing qualitatively different kinds of thinking  Adapted for classroom use as a planning tool  Continues to be one of the most universally applied models  Provides a way to organize thinking skills into six levels, from the most basic to the higher order levels of thinking  Taxonomy recently revised  As a result, a number of changes were made Bloom’s Taxonomy

4  Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy

5  Original Terms New Terms  Evaluation  Synthesis  Analysis  Application  Comprehension  Knowledge Creating Evaluating Analyzing Applying Understanding Remembering (Based on Pohl, 2000, Learning to Think, Thinking to Learn, p. 8)

6  Change in Emphasis  More authentic tool for curriculum planning, instructional delivery and assessment.  Aimed at a broader audience.  Easily applied to all levels of schooling.  The revision emphasises explanation and description of subcategories. (http://rite.ed.qut.edu.au/oz-teachernet/training/bloom.html (accessed July 2003; Pohl, 2000, p. 10).http://rite.ed.qut.edu.au/oz-teachernet/training/bloom.html

7  Remembering  The learner is able to recall, restate and remember learned information  Can you recall information?

8  Classroom Roles for Remembering Teacher roles  Directs  Tells  Shows  Examines  Questions  Evaluates Student roles  Responds  Absorbs  Remembers  Recognizes  Memorizes  Defines  Describes  Retells  Passive recipient

9  Assessment for Remembering Includes  Activities Include to:  List  Memorize  Locate  Give Example  Quote  Repeat  Recall  Recite  Sort  Products Include:  Quiz  Definition  Fact  Worksheet  Test  Label  Vocabulary

10  Understanding  The learner grasps the meaning of information by interpreting and translating what has been learned.  Can you explain ideas or concepts?

11  Classroom Roles for Understanding Teacher roles  Demonstrates  Listens  Questions  Compares  Contrasts  Examines Student roles  Explains  Describes  Outlines  Restates  Translates  Demonstrates  Interprets  Active participant

12  Assessment for Understanding Includes  Activities Include to:  Restate  Identify  Discuss  Retell  Translate  Paraphrase  Describe  Give main idea  Products Include:  Recitation  Summary  Collection  Explanation  Example  Outline  Show and Tell

13  Applying  The learner makes use of information in a context different from the one in which it was learned  Can you use the information in another familiar situation?

14  Classroom Roles for Applying Teacher roles  Shows  Facilitates  Observes  Evaluates  Organizes  Questions Student roles  Solves problems  Demonstrates use of knowledge  Calculates  Compiles  Completes  Illustrates  Constructs  Active recipient

15  Assessment for Applying Includes  Activities Include to:  Translate  Manipulate  Exhibit  Interpret  Calculate  Practice  Construct  Demonstrate  Products Include:  Illustration  Simulation  Demonstration  Presentation  Interview  Performance  Journal

16  Analyzing  The learner breaks learned information into its parts to best understand that information  Can you break information into parts to explore understandings and relationships?

17  Classroom Roles for Analyzing Teacher roles  Probes  Guides  Observes  Evaluates  Acts as a resource  Questions  Organizes  Dissects Student roles  Discusses  Uncovers  Argues  Debates  Thinks deeply  Tests  Examines  Questions  Calculates  Investigates  Inquires  Active participant

18  Assessment for Analyzing Includes  Activities Include to:  Distinguish  Experiment  Probe  Criticize  Detect  Sequence  Debate  Dissect  Products Include:  Graph  Spreadsheet  Checklist  Survey  Database  Abstract  Report

19  Evaluating  The learner makes decisions based on in- depth reflection, criticism and assessment  Can you justify a decision or course of action?

20  Classroom Roles for Evaluating Teacher roles  Clarifies  Accepts  Guides Student roles  Judges  Disputes  Compares  Critiques  Questions  Argues  Assesses  Decides  Selects  Justifies  Active participant

21  Assessment for Evaluating Includes  Activities Include to:  Judge  Rate  Validate  Predict  Determine  Tell Why  Compare  Defend  Products Include:  Debate  Panel  Evaluation  Investigation  Verdict  Conclusion  Persuasive Speech

22  Creating  The learner creates new ideas and information using what has been previously learned  Can you generate new products, ideas, or ways of viewing things?

23  Classroom Roles for Creating Teacher roles  Facilitates  Extends  Reflects  Analyses  Evaluates Student roles  Designs  Formulates  Plans  Takes risks  Modifies  Creates  Proposes  Active participant

24  Assessment for Creating Includes  Creating Includes to:  Compose  Assemble  Invent  Compile  Develop  Formulate  Concoct  Products Include:  Film  Story  Project  Song  Advertisement  Painting  Media Product

25  Now it’s your turn…  Use the Bloom’s Matrix and these notes to plan two activities or test questions for each level of the taxonomy.  Work with your partner.  We will copy these for our Thinking Skills Folder so everyone can share our BRILLIANT ideas. HAVE FUN!
